UK company lookup (Companies House) — lookup
One UK company by number or name, live from the official Companies House API: profile, status, type, SIC codes, registered-office area, accounts and confirmation-statement dates and overdue flags, charges, the latest filing events and corporate persons with significant control. Blind Mode: officers and individual PSCs are never ingested — filing events carry the category code, not the name. Cached 24 h.

changes mode, returns only what changed since the previous run.
